Hi,
May someone advise if in attached pic, if the fan should be activated or is the 'confirm to activate the test' button missing' as nothing happens ? Thank you.

I would like anyone who has owned or owns a Peugeot 402 to please pm me or respond to this post. I have some questions about the 402 that I cannot find any info regarding certain aspects of the car itself and I would like to know for research purposes. If anyone can be a help I would very much appreciate it.

Hello

I’m here for the first time

The flexi-hose part of exhaust is leaking

To my horror garages aren’t able to source any parts as they aren’t made by Peugeot any longer?
I found this out today.
Formula 1 will fit an eBay part without warranty

A specialist garage may be able to fashion a part. I’m seeing them tomorrow

However if anyone...

Was the 202 produced in right hand drive variants for say the UK market. I’m doing research for a project of mine and I would like a complete picture. And I’m not talking any rare variants, I mean the regular berline sedan. And while we’re at the same question for the larger 402. Pretty much any of those streamline Peugeot sedans with the...

Hi guys, I’m creating a new topic because I wasn’t able to find anything similar yet. So I had a problem with the wiring loom of my 2012 508 SW. It’s a 2.0 HDI 140, and since I got the Can bus problems sorted I found another problem.
Basically when starting cold it gives a bit of white smoke from the exhaust (2-3 seconds tops) that doesn’t smell...

Hi all!

So my father’s 307 blew it's radiator and for some reason I can’t find the correct part number.

Can someone provide me with the correct part number?

Cheers!

My friends Peugeot 308 will not start (or even try to turn over the engine). I strongly suspect that this is because it cannot see the Injection ECU. When I put my Lexia onto it there were 5 errors in the BSi (there are other errors further down the list), with one relating to the injector ECU and another to the starter...

Hi all,

I'm replacing the timing belt, auxiliary belt, pulleys, water pump, etc. on my 2.0 HDi 90 (with the Bosch fuel system).

I can't find what auxiliary belt I need -- they all seem to be different lengths. Can anybody tell me the part number for my VIN (which is VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff])?

I also want to change the crank pulley, but can't find the...

Hello guys,

A little help is needed :)

My car Peugeot 508 2011 2.0 163 hp, developed some issues with xenon headlamps after replacing sway bar bushings.

Problem is that headlight beam is at lowest settings and i am getting error message about directional headlamp issue.(It is really hard driving when its dark outside or on rainy day.)

Hi all. I've had the dreaded adblue issues and have been trying to diagnose them.

I thought it was likely the tank or the supply tube to the injector, or maybe the Nox sensor.

Removed cleaned and tested urea injector with water pump and 9v battery.

Removed and cleaned Nox sensor.

I have just received a new working Lexia and ran the emissions...

MOT fail this year - the car is OK, but did you know both front springs are broken ? I didn't. Good spot by the Inspector as the bottom coil is encased in a plastic tube so it is hard to see.

The springs are double diameter so if you plan a DIY replacement have at least 4 spring compressors handy. The garages use a press to do this job these...

Hi,

Hiya Guys!
First of all I wanted to introduce myself, as I'm a new member. That's the end of the offtopic here.
I am a new owner of a 2012 508 2.0Hdi, and I came across a similar problem. One day the park brake failure occured, but after restarting the car everything was fine.
Two days later my father in law was trying to move the car, but he...

Hi, This is my first time on a forum so here goes! The SMEG radio on my 308 SW keeps losing radio stations (poor reception message pops up) and my auto electrician tells me it's most probably the antenna amplifier that's gone as oppoosed to the main radio head. I've taken out the roof lining, looked behind the rear quarter lights, followed the...

On the top of the engine (driver side) there seems to be oil. And some of the oil has sprayed on to the wiper guard as well. These seems to be coming from the pipes or top portion of the engine on the driver side. Please...

Hi all,
Trying to sort out my Dads WAV after discovering the garage had hidden past damage by glueing everything up.... #-o

I fitted a new washer bottle and fog light but the corner panel is missing clips to secure it to the bumper. A visit to the local dealer proved fruitless as they supposedly come with the panel itself. So before i resort to...

Hi,

A family member revivived my OH's car recently from a timing belt snap, and I'm keen to return the favour in some way.

This family member owns a Peugeot 2008 65 plate with error code U1218.
He has done some fault finding, and is keen to find the wiring diagrams for his car if possible.

Potential sensor or wiring fault, so the wiring...

Hi all - brand new member here, with a puzzling problem.

I recently found that engine oil was getting into the coolant reservoir - no temperature problems, just oil level dropped and a layer of oil in the reservoir.
My local garage changed the oil cooler and flushed the system - all ok for a 20 mile round trip. The following day after the usual...

Hi,
My Check engine light is on and my notification panel reads 'anti pollution' fault.
My vehicle is a 2009 Peugeot 1.6Lt VTi , manual with 122,300 Kms on the clock.

(i) New VVT solenoids intake & exhaust;

The 2000 model cylinder head was replaced, the transmission was overhauled, the fog lights were not working, I took it to an auto electrician, the temperature was rising due to the air conditioner, there was water loss.
Some masters looked at the fan because it has a double fan and said the fan was not working. One of them said it was not working,...

206cc Roof acting like a stroppy teen.

My 206cc was parked up just before the mot expired & sorned for the winter. I did run it up a few times to keep the engine lubricated but didnt lower the roof enough times due to some rubbish weather & life getting in the way. Last week on a dry but chilly afternoon i started the car & thought lets put the...

New to this forum and hoping for some help. My 2017 berlingo DV6FE has stripped timing belt. I’m currently in the middle of rebuilding the engine back up and I’ve noticed the cam carrier is cracked!!! The part number for my cam carrier is 9685177110e, when searching the internet they aren’t many available but there are lots of carriers with the...

Hello.

I bought a broken 508.
We did a cylinder head repair on it.
We put a new timing chain, etc.

Now the car issues fault codes

P2178 Mixture too rich

The car has been replaced with a lot of parts and sensors, but will not be fixed.

What do these values mean?

Can someone help me?

Best regards

Hello, sorry for the stupid question but : i wanted to clean the maf sensor of my Peugeot 307 (engine EW10A) since i think it was never done but... i can't find it !
Even on servicebox software i don't see it.. it is possible that my engine use only the MAP sensor ?

Can anyone point me where i can find it ? (i've looked at the typical points, on...

So after having replaced the 1351KT water pipe, the car ran well for a week or so.

I had to fiddle with the rear coolant cap at the rear of the engine (the one just past the diesel filter/ rear turbo pipe) as it was leaking.

Then the cruise control stopped working and gave me the Speed Control System Faulty warning

I replaced the brake pedal...

I bought Mitutoyo Wiper Blades (alias Nakamoto):

They are pretty popular in my country (Serbia), for a little money you get super quality.

They are not original for Peugeot 308 but they come with 10 adapters. I have tried to replace it on driver's side, I replaced in 2 minutes but with the passenger side, I had a problem :)

Driving down to Henge with extended family, my niece, siblings and cousins were in a 208 2015 model. The car had coolant issues, but local mechanic seemed to have sorted it.

Hello,

I got these codes. No service or battery light appears on dash and charging seems to go on REGULARLY.

I must note that while dismantling the catalytic converter sparks flew from the alternator (i forgot to disconnect the battery).

Also, the connector in the picture seems strange (no one messed with it) - only one string is attached but...

Afternoon all :)

Does anybody happen to have a wiring diagram or ECU pinout for the below ECU?

306 ECU.jpeg

It's a 306 GTI ECU but we're not sure if it's from a Phase 2 or 3 and it's fitted to a genuine 1 of 2 306 Dimma Cabriolet but when the conversion was done the diagnostics socket wasn't wired in so we need to know which pins are:

While driving the other day a car went into limp mode and showed a engine fault after paying for a Diagnostic test it showed faults p11a and p1496

I have been to two garages to tell me it needs a new turbo at a cost of 1200!!!! Fitted. Its a 2018 306 1.5 it is booked in at peugeot to be 100% sure it needs one.

But i was just wondering if anyone...

Hi all,

The car has now about 68000 miles. I think I should look into the EGR and, eventually clean it (I have the Haynes manual for the car but, for them, that engine part doesn´t exist :( ).
Can someone help me?

Thank you in advance.

my recently bought 207 hdi had a blocked dpf, there were a few other faults which lead to its demise, a non functioning air flow meter, a sooty air filter, a leaking turbo pipe from tubo to IC, and a general lack of recent servicing, combined with a trip of about 2 miles to and from a college everyday for the last 2 or so years on the previous...

Hi all.

Can anyone help me to get the official maintenance plan and schedule (the what and when do). I tried to get it from the dealer... no luck. I have the Haynes manual... well, poor, very poor.

Thank you in advance

Alright I know this has been asked to death but…has anyone converted a 403 to a floor shifter?Before anyone tells me the virtues of column shifters, I just want to know can it be done, how it is done, and if there were any period conversions done back in the 50’s/60’s. And before anyone says anything yes I’m aware about the kits for the 404, but I...

Hi All
End of this week I will be removing the cluster from our 308cc as it is going to Autotronics for back light repair, my question is I know I have to disconnect the battery for removal, We are then away for 2 weeks whilst the cluster is also on hols in Autotronics, which leaves the 308 with no cluster in my garage for the 2 weeks we are away,...

Hi all,
I have a 207 1.6 VTi (2007) which had an ECU failure.
I purchased a working start kit from a similar donor car except mine has an automatic gearbox.
I managed to change the computers in the BSI section (manual telecoding, I'm not sure of the English menus as I have a French version of Diagbox)
Then I need to change some parameters for the...

Thinking ahead as I haven't got my 2008 yet. Has anyone hard wired a dash cam, directly to the fuse box. I have always hard wired as it is more convenient than having wires pushed in a loop round the centre console. Is it an easy operation? I know the fuse box is on the left but don't know if it is accessible from the cabin or the bonnet.

Hi,

Can any one recommend an engine oil?, for a MK1 3008 petrol 1.6.

Warning light came on yesterday.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, I got my first peugeot two weeks ago and I'm doing a bit of preventative maintenance. This is my first time doing a timing belt, but I thought this looked like a fairly good engine to have a first attempt on.

Got the new belt and water pump on and the car back together, but it sounded really rattly. I'm fairly certain the belt is off by...

Hello,
We have a Peugeot 206, 1.4i 55kW, 2005. Since buying it a few months back, we have one problem with the cooling gauge.
When we drive more than 20 km, there is strange behaviour with the temperature gauge. It starts at 0 and starts to crawl up slowly (way too slow), suddenly it shoots up to the red line and the STOP light turns on. After...

Now I got the message on the car dashboard that the FAP additive is too low.
